The Only Way
By on July 2, 2008
A mission team member from the Cornerstone team we hosted back in April shared this story with us:
At the schoolyard I introduced myself to three women that were watching our team play with the children. I started to have a conversation with them and they told me they were Christians. We talked for about twenty minutes or so and they were asking me questions about America and I was asking them questions about Qwa Qwa. Then I asked them if their church was a Bible-believing church (the women could speak English really well). They said that it was. Then I asked if they believed in witchdoctors or their ancestors. They said, “Yes we believe in our ancestors.”
I began to talk about what the Bible says about those things. I told them that those things aren’t from God! I shared from Deuteronomy, Hebrews, and Joshua, and showed them that God was the only One to put their trust in! “He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life!” I took time to minister to them about being deceived by Satan. I could see their faces begin to change and they said that they hadn’t known about all this! I asked if they wanted to surrender their life to God and ask Him to forgive them for believing in other gods. I shared how I was a single mom and that God always provided for me and my children! I encouraged them that He would provide for them, too! They all wanted to pray and I led them to the Lord! Praise God! I told them that I look forward to seeing them again–in Heaven!
